 * Note The nominator above nominated 21 articles for deletion in the space of 21 minutes. Whether the sources in the articles are sufficient or not, that is clearly not enough time to conduct a good-faith WP:BEFORE search, especially not for institutions like this where the coverage is likely to include stuff which is not in English... And obviously not even considering the obvious alternative to deletion here. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 14:19, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * @RandomCanadian - The page has been nominated by me after due checks after a user asked me to review a list of pages on my talk page. Its is incorrect to assume that they were nominated without verification, I verified the articles first and then nominated as there is nothing notable with these institutes, the pages merely establish institute existence. I hope the other editors would take an independent view considering the Wikipedia guidelines on notability and the references / citation on record.Advait (talk) 07:27, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete There's zero references in the article and all I can find are some trivial name drops in school directories. That said, I'd also be fine with redirecting it, but I'm not sure what the best target would be. So I'm leaving my "vote" as delete until someone poses a good place to redirect it to. --Adamant1 (talk) 04:34, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Appears to be a highly historic and notable college. I can't imagine a college like this being deleted if it was in North America or the United Kingdom. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:07, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
 * How exactly is it a highly notable college when there's zero references in the article and no one including you have provided any? --Adamant1 (talk) 02:23, 27 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES! Invalid nom. Specifically Most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions have enough coverage to be notable, although that coverage may not be readily available online. Polyamorph (talk) 04:47, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES #2 as noted by Polyamorph. There is in any case coverage of the college, e.g. . Hzh (talk) 19:45, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep While I don't see direct evidence of notability, the amount of coverage shown by Hzh convinces me that this institute has a good chance of being found notable under WP:GNG. The only reason for deletion remains WP:TNT, but with such a tainted nomination, I think this would be the wrong way to go.--Muhandes (talk) 08:40, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
